Abstract
In October 1949, and after decades, the Chinese Revolution triumphed. Mao Tse Tung was the main leader of the Chinese Communist Party at that time.
The Revolution caused sympathy and admiration in Third World countries. However, it was only in the sixties when Maoism appeared as a different branch into the International Communist Movement. It was due to a confrontation against the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which led the socialist world in the context of the Cold War.
It is usual to mix up Chinese Revolution and Maoism, as if they were the same. Even we recognize that they are part of a same process, in this article we propose a way to explain the specific emergence of Maoism as a different international movement.
We work with the documents of the split, and the 1957 and 1960 World Conferences, offering an analysis and periodization.
